get one All time jeff I enjoyed reading that .. funny it sounds exactly like Stephen Colbert is reading it in my head.... I don't know why ..
So this is the thing that made me finally look... I was talking to and old friend about why I didn't celebrate Christmas... I was exasperated because she had no Idea of the pagan origins.... and I blurted out " don't people every examine their own beliefs".... and i stopped it was like a light went on in my head ... I had never done this either... OMG I just told some one to do something I HAD NEVER DONE... got on Google read JWrecovery for about three days straight... that was 2009 it took two years later to fully grasp the gross misconduct of the WTBTS.. that was this Christmas..

The prophecies on Israel actually happening, yet no religion speaks of this.....
by EndofMysteries ini've been putting together what the bible 'really' teaches and not trying to put together what i want it to teach.
just a few interesting things which seem to flow through all of the prophet books............ first for israel had a curse if they didn't follow yahweh, deut 28:15-68 fortells what will happen.
it culminated with them being surrounded by their enemies and cut off and such ferocity that they would do cannibalism, mothers eating children and such.

Reality setting in for Jehovah's Witnesses?
by MrDarkKnight inwhen my friends and family try to "reason" with me about my decision to leave, i immediatley begin to question the interpretation of the so-called prophecy in the bible, i am getting the following consistent response:.
"it does not matter if the end comes in my lifetime.
i know i am doing god's will.".

then ask... if it is a long way off, and you say you don't know ... is slinging watchtowers that proclaim the END IS NEAR ..really gods will...
then why the urgency...

How to stump the atheists
by StopTheTears inask an atheist if he or she believes in the existence of aliens?
if they answer, "no," then ask them how do they know that?
the truth is that no atheist can reasonably deny the existence of alien life.

no one ever disproved that Thor or Zeus really exsited...... but they don't have any followers now! do they...
it was only 85 years ago we still believed our galaxy was the center of the universe
there might be aliens .. but just like GOD I'll believe it when I see it...
so you didn't stump me because you expected a yes or no answer... and there isn't one ... it's definite maybe...
try again

Do Individual JWs Pay For The Publications They Distribute?
by Joe Grundy inexcuse my ignorance, and i've read on boards about the us not selling/inviting contributions issue, but do individuals jws in effect pay for the publications they give out?
if so, is that only for their magazines or for hardback books as well?
how is this organised, please?.

thanks for the bump... I've been curious about this for some time...
when I was a child it was always watchtower and awake 15cents... and i remember we always took money but never more.. it was just to cover the cost of printing .. and we were not on a donation campaign.. but if they didn't pay we wouldn't place, we needed to know there was real interest... it was a to seperate people who would take stuff just to get you off their porch.. that was what i was told...
then when the change was made, i remember being a Bethel on a 2 week construction deal and M.E.P.S had just came out recently I was told that when the society asked IBM to write the program, they were told that's imposible... so the society with Jehovah's blessing did it... and sold it back to IBM .. and with the royalities.. they were set for life.. and that is why they no longer asked for donations, I never paid for any thing after That.. but I was kicked out shortly there after.. and always wondered about the inside info I had been given, I noticed it's never been repeated on here..
DID anyone elese hear this.?
